Rider Profile

Best For	Well suited to new and beginner-to-intermediate riders thanks to its light weight, modest power, and forgiving low-speed manners.
Purpose	Designed primarily as a sporty commuter for city streets and short spirited rides rather than outright performance or long-distance touring.
Rider Fit	Its low seat height and light overall weight make it easy for shorter or less experienced riders to handle and manage at a stop.
Character	Offers a nimble, flickable feel with sharp styling that gives an aggressive naked-bike attitude despite its small-displacement single-cylinder heart.
Not Ideal For	Not the right choice for riders seeking high-speed highway touring, off-road capability, or two-up long-distance comfort.

Calculated in your browser only - your height/inseam are never sent to our servers.

Feet:

At 790mm, a rider of 68.9" with a 31" (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2014 TVS Apache RTR 180, with a cramped knee angle of around 70 degrees and a forward-leaning riding position.

Data quality: measured. Assumes about 30mm of suspension sag once seated (a typical street-bike rule of thumb - stiffer or softer suspension will vary). This is an approximation from category-typical geometry and generic body proportions, not a measurement of this specific bike or you - sit on it before you buy.
